Mercedes boss Toto Wolff is far from impressed with a rumoured F1 rule change set to be discussed at the F1 Commission.

Wish this stuff wasn't clickbaited. What rule change?

It was reported over the Saudi weekend that talks are set to take place during the meeting of the F1 Commission next week which could see power in races capped at 200kw, but Mercedes boss Wolff is not a fan of the proposal.

My hero! I think LMP has a limit like that. Not sure it helps them have interesting races.

[–] CMLVI@lemmy.world 2 points 8 months ago (1 children)

I think theirs is more BOP more so than power restrictions. It's built into the racing for it to be good, but I've really been enjoying WEC and IMSA lately.

[–] BallShapedMan@lemmy.world 2 points 8 months ago (1 children)

Fascinating, I didn't realize that. And I enjoy their races as well. I'm still learning it and don't have a good cadence for catching races yet.

I missed Miami, so relatively, I'm doing pretty shit too lol.

[–] BallShapedMan@lemmy.world 2 points 8 months ago (2 children)

When was the Miami race? Asking as I was there over the weekend. I just realized I would have caught the F1 race if I planned a little better... Fail me.

[–] CMLVI@lemmy.world 2 points 8 months ago

Think weekend before last? My memory is shit lol. I watch F1, IMSA/WEC when I remember, and then mainly Supercross/Motocross over all else. Also really into CFB and CBB being in a college town, and then NHL/NFL when my teams aren't complete ass, which they both are rn so. Lol so my weekends usually get slammed with stuff, but this is a pretty lax time over Fall. Just racing currently.

Miami F1 is the weekend after next. Still time to get organised if you will still be there.

[–] BallShapedMan@lemmy.world 1 points 8 months ago

I won't, but I'll watch it on TV and wish I was. I thought it was odd seeing all the F1 stuff in the airport. I'm not a smart man.
